No Portland vital records are found for Isaac Ilsley, but an interesting document sourced to a published family genealogy notes that he was the man who built the spire on the First Parish Meeting House in Portland (then called Falmouth). His gravesite at Eastern Cemetery is long lost, and no stone survives for him there. But given his year of death, he would have been buried in the oldest section of the cemetery, pictured here. Many gravestones are missing from this area today.
